👉🏻 Tip: Be sure to check out the recipe video and step-by-step photos above before you get started!

Step 1: Prepare & bake the sweet potato

Peel the sweet potato and slice it into thin, even rounds (a mandoline slicer works great). Arrange the slices slightly overlapping on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with a little olive oil, season with salt, and sprinkle with vegan shredded cheese. Bake in a preheated oven at 320°F (160°C fan) for about 20 minutes.#

Step 2: Prepare the filling

Meanwhile, cut the smoked tofu into cubes or strips and pan-fry with a little oil and BBQ seasoning until golden and crispy. Chop the lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, and onion.

Step 3: Assemble the wrap

Carefully flip the baked sweet potato base and let it cool slightly. Spread with vegan herb cream cheese, add the tofu and veggies, then roll or fold into a wrap. Enjoy!

Tips & Variations

• Asian-inspired: Swap BBQ spices for soy sauce, sesame, and ginger.
• Extra creamy: Add avocado or hummus as a base spread.
• Spicy kick: Top with jalapeños or chili flakes.
